Elin

They had to nerf breastfeeding because at some point the meta was to start a war quest, milk the boss mid combat, and feed it to your pets for an insane amount of levels and stats.
GOTY

Elin is the prequel to an old freeware roguelike known as Elona. If you played Elona, you know basically what to expect here, just add in a rather deep crafting system, town management mechanics, and a fully translated story with some interesting ideas.
For those who haven't played Elona, Elin adheres to one very important roguelike aspect: the game is actively unkind to you if you dont take the time to understand it. Beyond the learning curve, Elin is a whimsical game with an air of hidden malice and nigh infinite grinding.
Lots of classes and races to choose from on character creation with feats that mean your choices will immediately matter in how you play the game.
Start out as a fairy thief and you'll be very fast, lucky, and able to steal right out from under people, but only be able to wear incredibly light gear. Say goodbye to that adamantite mace you were eyeballing.
Start as a Juere pianist, and roam the lands plying your bardic skills while your audiences tell you you're shit and throw rocks at your skull. Gain a cult following like any good musician, and eat lots of dead slimes to keep that charisma score rising.
Or play as a snail tourist, take 3 months to go from your house to the nearest town for groceries, and immediately die when a local janitor throws salt on you.
Life in Elin is what you make of it. Become a farmer and produce fruits and veggies so nutritionally dense that a single one of your potatoes could meet the nutritional needs of an entire country.
Become an adventurer, delving deep into 'Nefia', randomly generated dungeons that burst forth to the surface from their long buried states as the world seismically shifts.
Become a fisherman who turns all of his catches into bonito flakes... On a sawmill?? And then ferments the bonito flakes into wine in a brewery barrel to sell?
Drink from a well and suddenly break your legs losing 10 speed?
Fight an alien and become pregnant when it forcefully injects an egg down your throat and into your stomach??
Worship an advanced tech God who used to be human but ascended to godhood to try to kill all the gods himself because you saw he had a sweet shotgun and you want it???
Buy a few mermaids off a slave trader and scrape the scales off of their tails once a week to use them to craft mermaid leather handbags to sell en masse to a rabid consumer base????
There's a LOT you can do here, and a good chunk of it feels pretty unhinged when you think about it. 10/10 would feed a mermaid her own egg in omelette form again.

Be me, level 5 Fisherman. usually get either nothing or trash. end up spending 20 minutes power leveling fishing. suddenly pull up the big one. its a 1200 pound statue of a god. I end up moving by accident while the statue is in my inventory. I immediately die from the sheer weight. 10/10 would fish again.
be me lv 60 fisherman, I now turn fish into fertilizer, I "hammer" the fertilizer into "corpses". the "corpses" are then butchered which turn them into giblets for me just to turn back into bait so i can fish even more. life is good.

I was woken up in the forest by two strangers. they might be related, idk. anyways, they gave me a free land deed and I accepted it. then they were like "lmao, now that you have land you have to pay taxes." damn ok. one of the strangers that finessed me into a life of servitude to the government gave me the choice: a dog, a cat, a bear, and a little girl. wtf, I guess I'll take the dog. their name is "a puppy." i start doing quests in order to pay taxes and not go to prison and she asks me to save her puppy from a cave. don't worry, the cave shouldn't be too dangerous she says. ha. I died like 14 times. I rescue her puppy and return it. she thanks me and then the reward was... her puppy. now I have two dogs.
but that is when my fortunes changed. there was a new dialogue option. "how would you like to get some tail t'night?" I say to the strange lady. and then I prostituted myself to her. and when we were done she throws money at me. the other stranger does the same thing. the advisor they brought along also paid for my services. I go into town and I am whoring myself out to half the town. I am swimming in gold. I go into the mayor's office to pay taxes. he also wanted a piece of that ass. we got nasty on the floor of his office. I am officially a sex worker.
upon returning to my homestead, one of my dogs has a quest. it says they are hungry and they want some meat. so I fed them puppy meat. they loved it. my other puppy had a quest as well. they have a son they haven't seen in a long time, and they wanted me to deliver their puppy a lectern. one of the strange sex pests that gave me the land soon found themselves in debt. a whopping 20 million in debt, to be exact. and for some reason it is now my responsibility to make that happen. but they also sold me a book on how to evade taxes. so we're even. i guess.
idk wtf is going on. but I like it

It's Elona, but now you can build towns, and you can grind the town's skills because of course the towns have skills/talents, but towns have to pay taxes, but you can get them the tax evasion skill, but that makes your karma look bad, so now you have to lock in on the adventurer grind to build up your karma to make everyone ignore all the tax fraud you are committing because you gotta live the dream of a world with no taxes somehow.

*starts game as new player, doing basic tutorial*
*is given a "pet" during tutorial quests....chooses little girl as pet*
*proceeds to do combat tutorial*
*enemy on screen, little girl charges in and turns enemy into a bloody pile before i can learn how to fight*
*little girl heart emotes covered in blood*
*second enemy to teach how to use ranged weapon shows up, little girl annihilates it*
*another heart emote from little girl while she stands in the puddled remains*
*every dungeon and battle map from then on, little girl charges ahead like a murderous psychopath killing everything and loving it*
*little girl is 8 years old*

10/10 would let little girl slaughter the world in every play through.

Its been 3 in game years and I have accomplished zero of of the main storyline. I run a small farm full of whatever rejects I have found. One of my chickens secretly wants all humans to die. To earn money, I sell hallucinogenic mushrooms. Its not enough, the tax man is going to get me. I earn a bit more money by doing a simple errand to deliver an Assault Rifle to Port Kapul. Job done I take a break in the spa and drown to death accidentally. I spend some platinum coins and get more skills and take up sculpture and improve my mining. I eat hallucinogenic mushrooms and create a royal statue of a prostitute, which i promptly sell. The tax man is appeased, for a little bit. I earn enough money to buy a horse, and then have my pet little girl ride on my shoulders at the same time, creating a totem pole of doom. I also take up music. While practicing the little girl on my shoulders pelts me with a brick she picked up somewhere and I nearly die. I decide to go practice in front of much smaller children and old ladies for awhile. Eventually, I play at parties and earn enough to pay for the tax bill due 2 months late I didnt get to pay due to buying a horse, which I am still so bad at riding I can actually walk faster. The tax man is appeased again. I start a museum with some of the statues I make and start expanding my land and making housing and getting more farm/livestock to keep a consistent food supply. My taxes due are still going up, help. Help. The tax man is still coming.

10/10 taxes are due again.
